I light a candle to our love

In love our problems disappear

But all in all we soon discoverThat one and one is all we long to hear

All ′round the world

Little children being born to the world

Got to give 'em all we can ′til the war is won

Then will the work be done?

Help them to learn (help them to learn)

Songs of joy instead of "burn, baby, burn" (Burn, baby, burn)

Let us show them how to play

The pipes of peace

Play the pipes of peace

Help me to learn

Songs of joy instead of "burn, baby, burn"

Won't you show me how to play (how to play)

The pipes of peace? (Pipes of peace)

Play the pipes of peace

Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh

What do you say? (Do you say)

Will the human race be run in a day? (In a day)

Or will someone save this planet we're playing on

Is it the only one?

What are we going to do?

Help them to see (help them to see)

That the people here are like you and me (like you and me)

Let us show them how to play (how to play)

The pipes of peace (pipes of peace)

Play the pipes of peace

Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh

I light a candle to our love (pum, pum, pum-)

In love our problems disappear (pum, pum, pum-)

But all in all, we soon discover (pipes of peace, what we really want the pipe)

That one and one is all we long to hear
